Recently, I had a nagging toothache that called for an impromptu dental visit. I’m a grinder, and I never wear my night guard. I know…know…If I would just wear it my life would be so much easier! Regardless, the highlight of my appointment was being complimented on the color of my teeth by the dental assistant 😁 I wholeheartedly attribute this to using a teeth whitening product 💜
Lately, I have been loving the Black Pearl Teeth Whitening Powder from Living Earth Market. I would just like to thank the brand for sending over this jar of goodness, along with their Vitamin C Serum, which we are going to talk a little bit about in this post as well 🍊 Keep reading to learn about Living Earth Market, their lovely goodies, and their sustainability model ~ I am all about a brand that focuses on their impact on the environment 🌎
I must say I was a little scared the first time I ever tried an activated charcoal product for the purposes of whitening my teeth. It just seemed so counterproductive, but I was hearing so many great things about it, I just had to give it a shot 🖤 Luckily, I had received a small sample a long while back in one of my Petit Vour boxes. I tried it and I was instantly impressed! Your teeth will be whiter 😀 Activated charcoal is no joke people!!! My kids even confiscated my tiny little sample and were obsessed with the results themselves 💏
Fast forward to my experience with this jar of Black Pearl Teeth Whitening Powder from Living Earth Market. While I can still remember and understand why someone would be intimidated by putting black powder on their teeth, I am going to give you a few tips to make the process super easy!
Tip #1 – A little bit goes a long way
Don’t overdo it. Not because it will be a disaster, but because you only need a little bit to get the job done. Do you really want to make a mess of black powder in your bathroom??? This jar is a whopping 30g and will last you a very long time! Plus it’s only $20 😍
Tip #2 – Transition into it
The easiest way for me to get started using this product was by dipping my toothbrush into it, and brushing my teeth as usual 💛 Heads up…I don’t dip into this large jar. I actually put some product in a recycled sample size container from a face mask I think? I feel like this gives me more control of the situation, plus I’m not constantly exposing the full size to air from opening and closing all the time 🌎
Tip #3 – Make it a 2-step process
So when I want to do a really deep whitening session, I like to use the powder on its own and really go to town. I do like to use a little more powder in this instances, which does leave a tiny bit of residue when I rinse. No worries, I just brush my teeth with toothpaste afterwards as usual, and then my pearly whites look perfect, well except for that tiny little chip 😉👍
Hopefully these steps will help make the first time you use an activated charcoal teeth whitening powder super easy! Plus your teeth will look great too 💗
Black Pearl Teeth Whitening Powder Ingredients

Magic ♥
Calcium Bentonite Clay – special absorption qualities, extracts harmful pathogens and absorbs acid-causing bacteria, provides remineralizing benefits and restores teeth
Organic Peppermint – natural odor control, works with sodium bicarbonate to kill odor causing bacteria, leaving a clean taste & feel

Recently I have also been testing out a new skin care routine, and was able to incorporate the Living Earth Market Vitamin C Serum 🍊 I love using it to seal in my favorite facial oils! This anti-aging formula uses 20% medical grade Vitamin C, and is meant to help remove wrinkles, fade age spots, and add firmness to the skin. Vitamin C has also been shown to help prevent and treat UV damage, and act as a catalyst for collagen synthesis.
It has only been a few weeks since I started using this serum, so I cannot speak to the long term effects, but I do notice a brighter, healthier glow to my skin every time I use it ✨ I can also report that it plays very nice with all my other skincare products 💛
